no spikes. no audio dropouts. i just have a folder of songs as channels and thier core parts as clips on said channel. this also works on grouped channels.
one of the things i didnt like about ableton was the inability to toggle between gate play and trigger.
this method raises 2 potential solutions to said problem:
1. make 2 channels for a song and group them - both have the same clips but ones default launch is trigger and the other is gate.
2. for breaks and sparse shit - make third channel to group in, make it a midi channel, and chop the shit out of the songs breaks into midi clips set to trigger; if you want to jam on some one shot samples before dropping the clip - simply arm the track and jam on those samples.
negatives about this setup - uses alot of hard drive space. also theres organization - i havent gone full scale yet so i am unsure if i want to organize it by bpm or treat it like an itunes style folder hierarchy.
